Profusa Outlines Potential Path to $250 Million
Revenue by 2030, Driven by
Sequential Lumee Oxygen and Glucose
EU commercialization expected in early 2026;
U.S. entry and expanded indications to follow as digital-health pioneer advances tissue-integrated biosensor platform
BERKELEY, Calif, October 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
- Profusa, Inc. ("Profusa" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: PFSA), a commercial stage digital health company
pioneering a next-generation technology platform enabling the continuous monitoring of an individual's biochemistry, outlines its
path to revenue generation led by Lumee tissue oxygen monitoring, with commercialization in the European Union (EU) expected in the beginning
Following recently-announced manufacturing capabilities,
intended distributor partnerships, and commercial and clinical collaboration wins, Profusa estimates it now has approximately 35% of
the European population covered through its intended distribution channels. Combined with expanding coverage in Europe and planned geographic
reach into the United States markets, as well as potential additional indications on its Lumee technology platform - such as continuous
glucose monitoring - Profusa anticipates $200 to $250 million in potential revenue by 2030.
"We believe Profusa is bringing to market
a first-of-its-kind, disruptive biochemistry monitoring platform designed for use both in the clinic and at home," said Ben Hwang,
Ph.D., Profusa's Chairman and CEO. "Backed by more than a decade of development and over $100 million in investment, our
Lumee technology enables continuous, real-time measurement of tissue oxygen directly within the body-offering a less invasive,
more convenient experience for patients while reducing costs for healthcare systems and insurers through earlier detection and improved
"Following years of innovation and clinical
validation, we are preparing for the commercial launch of Lumee tissue oxygen monitoring in Europe in 2Q 2026, supported by strong momentum
from clinicians, patients, and research institutions eager to harness our technology to address conditions with a significant unmet medical
need," Dr. Hwang continued.
"As we begin our commercial journey, Profusa
is targeting $200 to $250 million in revenue by 2030, supported by multiple high-growth indications. In tissue oxygen monitoring alone,
we estimate a $10.5 billion global addressable market across peripheral artery disease, chronic wounds, and critical limb ischemia-representing
more than 716,000 CLI procedures annually in Europe. In addition, current solutions for continuous glucose monitoring serve roughly 9
million type 1 diabetes patients, whereas Lumee's glucose platform is designed to reach a much broader population of over 500 million
people living with type 1, type 2, or pre-diabetes worldwide," concluded Dr. Hwang.
Fred Knechtel, Profusa's CFO, said, "We
expect to layer on additional indications on our Lumee platform technology over time. Tissue oxygen monitoring revenue in Europe is expected
to commence in the second quarter of 2026. With our current pipeline of commercial and clinical collaborations and intended distribution
network, we are projecting potential revenue of $0.5 to $2 million in in 2026.
"In 2027, we plan to enter the US tissue
oxygen monitoring market in the first quarter and add continuous glucose monitoring in the EU in mid-2027. Projected potential revenue
in 2027 is $9 to $13 million. In parallel, additional conditions for evaluation - through expected partnerships or licensing agreements
- include lactate, carbon dioxide, sodium, and ethanol, which we expect will all contribute to 2030's projected potential
revenue. We look forward to executing on this aggressive and dynamic growth agenda," Mr. Knechtel concluded.
Based in Berkeley, Calif., Profusa is a commercial
stage digital health company led by visionary scientific founders, an experienced management team and a world-class board of directors
in the development of a new generation of tissue-integrated sensors to detect and continuously transmit actionable, medical-grade data
for personal and medical use. With its long-lasting, injectable and affordable biosensors and its intelligent data platform, Profusa aims
to provide people with a personalized biochemical signature rooted in data that clinicians can trust and rely on.
